Andrew Hawkins
New Palestine’s latest pastor made his way here from the last frontier; Fairbanks, Alaska. He and his wife Logan have been married since 2019. When Andrew was finishing up his degree in Biblical Studies from Grand Canyon University the couple began praying for where God was calling them to go. Almost immediately, God began making them uncomfortable in Alaska. Between a sprained leg, three intense snowstorms and constant vehicle problems, the couple began to realize God was calling them to leave the 49th state. After selling their house, and before they knew what church God was calling them to, they left Logan’s home state and headed to the south. After so long searching, the Lord brought this God-fearing couple and the good people of New Palestine together.
